Raise a Glass to This Fellow and That Gal !!!

I don't really know who he is, but we found him on a showground recently and asked him if he'd run our shows for us. He agreed, and off he went.

No, seriously folks, Lewis has done an outstanding job for BRHJA. We all had a feeling it was all going well, but after the March show, we have the proof. Through his efforts, not only did the show run rather smoothly, but costs have been very well controlled, and the results are that there is a nice chunk of money left to put back into the future, and a lot of excited exhibitors who want to keep coming back.

And then there's the person who asked him in the first place, Jamie Corn.

So next time you see either of them around town or on the showgrounds, give them a nice thanks, and remember to toast each of them heartily next time you have the opportunity.
Cheers to both of you, Mark

2008 Progressive Jumper Division

Hey folks, notice the new division that's been going on! Progressive Jumper Rider. It's exactly the same as the one that PSJ has, 'Fences 2’6” – 2’9” Open to novice riders in their first or second year of showing in the jumpers at 2’6”.' The board voted to add this during the first meeting of the year, but we've just had a time getting all of this put together to get points in order. Chickie has gone back to make sure that all the points are correct, and on the web site points page, we have a link to it.

Welcome to BRHJA Buzz

BRHJA Members and Friends!

We're going to try this blog to see if it can help generate more excitement about BRHJA! If you have a report from an out of town show, in town show, almost anything of interest to all of us, send a post on to us, and we'll add it to the thread or create a new one. You can always send a new post to horseshows@brhja.com or just use the box in the blog body where it says "Post a Comment," and it will be put up by the moderator. Some guidelines:

1. Remember that this is not a bulletin board. Your comment will not show up immediately like it does on the CotH BB.
2. So that means that all comments will be "moderated," yes censored, to make sure that we're keeping it clean and playing nice in the sandbox.
3. When creating your post, it's preferable that you actually create an account so that we know who sent the message, but you can choose to just select "Anonymous" if you wish. If you do use "Anonymous," we ask that you do ID yourself with a name or a regular nickname, so we can know it's a true post. It will also give your comment a greater chance of it getting into the blog!

Ashley Goodlett and I will be the co-moderators on this.

So give us your news and such!

Mark
